‘Love Is Blind’ Reunion: Why a Season 10 Marriage Ended After 4 Months
The Ohio cast gave updates on their lives in the Love Is Blind reunion in the March 11th episode. Season 10 ended with two marriages, and we got an update on them.
Spoiler alert for the Love Is Blind reunion!
Dr Haramol Gill, Mike Gibney, Jordan Faeth, Connor Spies, Kevin Verhoef, Parker Knapp, Chris Fusco, Alex LowrieNetflix
Jordan Faeth came onto the Netflix show not wanting to fall in love with a single mother. However, that changed when he met Amber Morrison, who had one daughter. Viewers saw her daughter sit in the front row on their wedding day, shocked that Jordan, 34, said, "I do." The couple gave an update on their marriage.
Why Jordan and Amber’s Marriage Ended After 4 MonthsNick Lachey asked where the couple stands at the reunion. "It lasted four months," Jordan revealed. "So we're not together anymore."
The account executive said things changed during those months, and Amber, 34, still had trust issues from her previous relationships. "I was constantly trying to repair a trust that I didn't break," he claimed. "For me, it took a toll."

Amber was upset that he didn't move in with her and her daughter. "I don't think he was ready to be honest," the nurse practitioner said. "It's really difficult to trust somebody when they are only coming up on the weekends, or I'm going down there and they want to be at home in Columbus like five, six nights a week," she later added. Columbus was 45 minutes away.

Jordan later revealed that Amber showed up late to a wedding they were supposed to attend together and got "blacked out." He accused her of sleeping at a table and then cussing at him that night. Jordan said he was humiliated as the best man at the wedding. "Those things pushed me away," he said.
Jordan said it would've been irresponsible to stay in the relationship. Amber admitted to having anger issues and wanting to work on that for the relationship. She got emotional because Jordan didn't say goodbye to her daughter first. Jordan made it clear that he didn't leave because of her daughter and was sorry it ended that way.
Amber stormed off and returned to the stage after she cooled off. The mother said she's taking away the friendships with the other women in the cast. She also called Jordan a "good guy."
This makes for one of Love Is Blind's shortest marriages. It's also the first time a single mom got married in the experiment.
'70s Rock Legend Ranked 'Greatest Guitarist of All Time'
Since the dawn of rock and roll, fans have been arguing about who deserves the title of "best" guitarist. And while the genre has produced quite a large number of outrageously talented musicians over the years, the same candidates inevitably come up in the "the greatest guitar player" conversation, every time: Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour...but it all depends on who you ask.
When Guitar World asked readers to vote for their favorite guitarist out of a list of 170 famous rockers, the above names all made it into the top 10...but none were at the very pinnacle. So who was ranked #1?
First, let's take a look at the almost-winners. Coming in 10th place was Slash of Guns N' Roses, deemed "arguably the last great rock guitar hero" by GW. (There's no mistaking Slash's style, to be sure, whether you're talking about the way he solos or his trademark hat and sunglasses look.) Next up, in ninth place, was Jeff Beck — "not just the guitar player’s guitar hero; he was the guitar hero’s guitar hero" — followed by the sometimes-overlooked Alex Lifeson of Rush at #8.

In seventh place was Deep Purple's Ritchie Blackmore, credited with looking "beyond the Pentatonic shapes and towards classical music for inspiration, classing up the denim-and-leather demographic and expanding its horizons," while sixth place went to the aforementioned Gilmour, whose exquisite playing is just as transcendent now as it was when Pink Floyd was still making albums.
The top five kicked off with guitar "god" Eric Clapton, who's heading out on tour again this year, followed by hard rock virtuoso Eddie Van Halen at #4. Led Zeppelin's own Page (also an alumni of the Yardbirds, like Clapton and Beck) came in third, while "supernova of creativity" Hendrix took second place.

And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for...the title of "greatest guitarist of all time" went to Queen's Brian May. As GW put it, "There really is something texturally gourmand about May’s tone, a phalanx of Vox AC30s, with the Dallas Rangemaster in front, the phase shifting, the tape echo. As for his playing, it was sheer rock as theater, the fire to match the bombast, and the operatic splendor of a peerless band whose frontman must have been a dream to play alongside."
Whether any of these musical icons are truly better than the rest is debatable, of course, but one thing's for sure...they're all responsible for some of the greatest music ever.

Southwest Flight Attendants ‘Up In Arms’ Over Controversial New Airline Policy
Some Southwest Airlines employees are expressing frustration after the airline rolled out another new controversial policy—this time affecting how workers travel on standby.
The airline recently updated its internal travel rules to restrict access to cabin jumpseats, limiting them exclusively to pilots and flight attendants. That means other Southwest employees will no longer be able to use spare jumpseats when flights are full, even if they’re traveling on standby.
For years, those extra seats were occasionally offered to non-crew employees trying to get from one city to another when passenger seats were unavailable. This sparked criticism from some Southwest workers who previously relied on jumpseat access, especially during busy travel periods when standby seats are scarce.
One aviation analyst shared on X that employees are “up in arms” about the changes. They also noted that it “sounds like it might be a negotiating tactic to get crew to move bags out of the bins above extended legroom (premium) seats.”
According to the Transport Workers Union Local 556 (TWU 556) per Aviation A2Z, which represents Southwest’s flight attendants, the change was pushed in the name of safety and operational efficiency. The union explained that individuals occupying cabin jumpseats must understand the working environment inside the aircraft and be trained in emergency procedures. Flight attendants, who receive regular training for evacuation scenarios and in-flight safety responsibilities, are expected to assist in emergencies if needed.
Standby travel can be unpredictable even under normal conditions. Employees often plan multiple backup routes and sometimes wait until the final moments of boarding to see whether a seat opens up.

But flight attendants, however, see the policy as a necessary evil. Nearly one-third of Southwest’s flight attendants commute by air to reach their assigned bases, and when flights are full, a commuting crew member could miss work without jumpseat availability.
The policy arrives after Southwest has been under fire for several other major changes this year. In 2025, the airline ended its long-standing open seating model and introduced assigned seating for the first time in its history. It also began charging for checked bags, another move that breaks from a decades-long policy that made the airline preferential for many travellers.
High Voltage Unmasked on ‘The Masked Singer’ After Care Bears Sing-Off
Another mystery contestant was revealed during Care Bears Night on The Masked Singer season 14.
After the audience and panel cast their votes, High Voltage and Pangolin landed in the bottom two and had to battle it out in a sing-off to stay in the competition.
The two performers faced off with a lively performance of the Pointer Sisters classic "I'm So Excited," but in the end only one could continue on in the competition.

Who Was Unmasked on ‘The Masked Singer’ Tonight?After the final vote, High Voltage was eliminated and had to reveal his identity.
Before the mask came off, the show opened the “Crack the Case” clue box, revealing a pair of gold soccer cleats—a hint that immediately pushed the panel toward athletes in their final guesses.
🎤 Final Panel Guesses For High VoltageRobin Thicke connected the number clues and athletic imagery to one of the most famous football players of all time: "I've been thinking it's an on-air personality, but with the new clues, the 22, the cleats, he was drafted when he was 22, he retired in 2022 and we saw Patriots, I'm gonna go Tom Brady."
Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg also leaned toward a former New England Patriots star: "I'm feeling the Patriot myself and the first time I saw him, I said Julian Edelman."
Ken Jeong stuck with his running theory connecting the clues to Taylor Swift’s hit song "22," saying, "The 22, he said I'm feelin' 22, for Taylor Swift. Case closed, Travis Kelce!"
Rita Ora went in a completely different direction, interpreting the cleats clue as pointing toward soccer: "They're all guessing athletes…but I'm gonna hold my ground…cleats make me think soccer, which makes me think Ted Lasso, could this be Jason Sudeikis?"
Who is High Voltage on 'The Masked Singer'?When the mask finally came off, High Voltage was revealed to be former U.S. soccer star Alexi Lalas.
Lalas became one of the most recognizable American soccer players during the 1994 FIFA World Cup, where his long red hair and beard helped make him a breakout figure on the United States national team.
Since his playing career ended, Lalas has remained a prominent voice in the sport as a Fox Sports soccer analyst and commentator. He’s also pursued a music career, releasing multiple rock albums over the years.
After revealing his identity, Lalas sang the audience out with another performance of "Bad Day."
What’s Next on ‘The Masked Singer’?Nick Cannon also teased what’s coming next on the hit FOX competition. Next week’s episode will be Star Trek Night, featuring performances from:
- 14 Karat Carrot
- Cat Witch
- Galaxy Girl
- Stingray
Those four contestants will compete for the final spots before the season 14 semifinals on March 25 and the two-hour finale airs April 1.

1972 Ultimate Classic Was a No. 1 Hit 54 Years Ago Today
James Brown made a powerful statement in the 1970s after releasing the hit song "Talkin' Loud and Sayin' Nothing."
Celebrated as the “Godfather of Soul,” he brought his signature funk and groove-driven anthem to the charts.
Fifty-four years ago today, the 1972 song not only became a hit but also dominated the music rankings, particularly the Billboard Hot Soul Singles chart, now known as the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
At that time, Brown’s "Talkin' Loud and Sayin' Nothing" spent one week at the top spot and had a 13-week run on the soul chart.
Additionally, the song also reached the Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked at No. 27.
Written by Brown himself along with longtime collaborator Bobby Byrd, "Talkin' Loud and Sayin' Nothing" features a sharp groove and unmistakable energy that made it a fan favorite.
James Brown "The Godfather of Soul" performs at Lakewood Amphitheater in Atlanta Georgia 2005.While the music is all about groove and rhythm, the music icon mentioned in his 1986 autobiography titled "The Godfather of Soul" that the song was directed at politicians who talked a lot but didn’t truly address the real problems faced by ordinary Americans.
In addition, the 1972 track was not just a jab at the government but also a demand for independence, especially in the lines that say "Don't tell me how to do my thing" and "You can't tell me how to run my life down.”
In a Reddit posts, fans called this song Brown's “masterpiece” and a “reality check” for some.
Apart from "Talkin' Loud and Sayin' Nothing," Brown released a slew of notable songs throughout his career.
The 1965 track "I Got You (I Feel Good)" is considered his most widely recognized song. It was also his highest charting hit on the Billboard Hot 100 after reaching No. 3.
He further cemented his status in the music industry through his signature hits like "Papa's Got a Brand New Bag" in 1965, which earned him his first Grammy Award, and "Get Up (I Feel Like Being a) Sex Machine" in 1970.
Throughout his career, Brown landed over 90 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 and scored 17 No. 1 singles on the R&B charts, solidifying his legacy as a true music icon.

Nancy Guthrie Update: Megyn Kelly Unearths 2013 'Today' Segment Showing Inside Her Bedroom
Savannah Guthrie‘s mom, Nancy Guthrie, is still missing after the abduction from her Tucson, Ariz., home—and Megyn Kelly just unearthed a 2013 Today segment showing the 84-year-old inside her bedroom.
In a YouTube video that the Megyn Kelly Show host published on March 11, Kelly revealed a clip featuring Nancy and weighed in on how it might have been used against the family.
"So what's interesting about that clip is you can see where she slept every night," she pointed out. "And you can see exactly what this abductor must have walked into. I mean, does anybody's mother dramatically overhaul their bedroom when they're in their 80s, 70s? I mean, that was, what, 13 years ago?"
Kelly added, "The point is simply you can see right into her bedroom and, generally, the way it was and the way it was set up. And she lives in the same house."
Related: Savannah Guthrie’s Mom Nancy Update: Megyn Kelly Points Out Key Detail in New Video
Additionally, the former Megyn Kelly Today host shared why she thought the 2013 Today clip with Nancy was "interesting"—by connecting it to alleged ransom notes from February.
"We had an alleged kidnapper note early on in the Nancy Guthrie scandal, claiming they knew exactly where she kept her Apple Watch," Kelly explained. "And they had described something inside Nancy's bedroom...Did those people behind that note see this segment?"
Kelly then claimed that she could "write a very convincing kidnap note," based on the details in the Today segment alone.
"I could describe the inside of that room to a T," she said. "And if you didn't know that the Today show had aired that footage in 2013, you would be very convinced that I had been inside Nancy Guthrie's bedroom...I wonder whether the authorities are even aware that this was broadcast publicly."
Finally, Kelly laid out two ways that bad actors might have used this footage of Nancy's bedroom.
"To actually go into the bedroom and show off the most intimate area of her mom's life may have given somebody some sort of way of manipulating either the FBI and the Pima County Sheriff's Department by being able to say you knew what it looked like," she explained. "Or, potentially giving you a road map for what you would encounter once you go into that bedroom, if you were a bad guy willing to do some homework."
Nancy was last seen at her Catalina Foothills home,—which she has lived in for 50 years—on Jan. 31. The Pima County Police Department has been searching for her since Feb. 1. As of writing, no suspect has been named.

Who Is Crane on ‘The Masked Singer’? Engagement Clue Sparks Taylor Swift and Normani Guesses
Another mysterious performer took the stage during Care Bears Night on The Masked Singer season 14, and Crane once again delivered a confident pop performance that had the panel scrambling for answers.
Performing Chappell Roan’s hit "Good Luck, Babe!," Crane leaned fully into the dramatic pop vocals that have already convinced the judges she’s an experienced performer. But the biggest hint of the night involved a clue about a recent engagement.
So who is Crane on The Masked Singer? Let’s break down the latest clues and panel guesses.
RELATED: Meet the Cast Competing on ‘The Masked Singer’ Season 14
Who Is Crane on ‘The Masked Singer’?Crane brought soaring vocals and theatrical energy to her performance of "Good Luck, Babe!," showcasing the polished stage presence the judges have noticed since her first appearance.
But the moment that really caught the panel’s attention came from her “Colossal Clue.”
The show revealed that Crane is not Ashanti, followed by a visual clue of a football player in a purple uniform proposing on one knee.
After the performance, Crane added another intriguing hint about her personal life: "I just kicked off my next chapter with a major win, and I couldn't be happier."
The engagement-themed clue immediately sent the judges searching for singers who recently got engaged to NFL players.

🔍 New Clues This WeekNew hints revealed during Care Bears Night include:
- A football player proposing on one knee
- A reference to a major new chapter in her life
- Confirmation that she is not Ashanti
The engagement clue suggests Crane could be a singer who recently got engaged to a professional football player.
RELATED: ‘Masked Singer’ Reveals First-Ever Twist That Changes the Game for Season 14
🎤 What the Panel Is SayingThe judges quickly zeroed in on one pop star in particular.
Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg said she had already written the name down during the previous episode but decided to hold back until hearing the new clues: "I wrote down a name last time and held it back…I think it's Normani."
Rita Ora revealed she had arrived at the same guess based on the voice and Crane’s background in a major girl group, saying, "Being a big fan of this artist in the band and as a solo artist, this could be Normani from Fifth Harmony."
Normani got engaged to NFL star DK Metcalf in March 2025, which could align with the engagement clue revealed during the episode, though Metcalf does not play for a team with purple as a uniform color nor does he play for the New York Giants.
Ken Jeong, meanwhile, went in a completely different direction, saying, "I know exactly who this is: look at the football clue, look at the engagement clue. If High Voltage is Travis Kelce…Crane is Taylor Swift! They just got engaged!"
🕯 Previous Clues So FarEarlier clue packages hinted that Crane could be a major pop star with roots in the 1990s and crossover success across television, film and music.
Visual hints have included ballet slippers, diamonds and a sticker reading “Most Influential,” while Crane also name-dropped several high-profile admirers, includingJanet Jackson, Michelle Obama and Angelina Jolie.
During Spice Girls Night, additional clues pointed toward strong family ties and London connections, including a red double-decker bus, a football helmet resembling a New York Giants helmet and a photo of Mel B.
Crane also shared that her grandmother helped sew costumes and pageant gowns when she was young, hinting at a performer who has been in the spotlight for much of her life.
Taken together, the clues suggest Crane may be a pop star with girl-group roots who has successfully transitioned into a solo career.

Nicole Kidman Reveals the One Dating Dealbreaker She Can’t Ignore
Nicole Kidman is back on the market—and she just revealed her biggest dating dealbreaker.
During the Tuesday, Mar. 11 episode of the Las Culturistas podcast hosted by Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers, the actress revealed the one thing she won't tolerate with a future partner.
"I cannot stand bad breath. I mean, this is a deal breaker for me," Kidman said. "You could be the most gorgeous, gorgeous guy, and you come at me with bad breath, and I'm like, 'No, no, no.'"
"If I say, 'Breathe on me,' and I have to recoil, yikes. I'm out. I am out," she continued, before recalling a bad breath incident she had with Alexander Skarsgård, who played her husband on Big Little Lies. "And so, therefore, when Alexander Skarsgård ate a falafel sandwich before we did scenes in Big Little Lies, I'm like, 'No, no, no, Alex. I'm meant to be kissing you, and into you, put away the falafel.'"
She concluded, "Bad breath does not turn me on. As I said, it is very important to smell good, but more importantly, the mouth, the taste of the mouth, and the smell of the mouth is very important to me. "
RELATED: Keith Urban Last Posted With Nicole Kidman Four Months Before Split
In September, news broke that Kidman and her husband Keith Urban had separated after nearly twenty years of marriage. The couple share two daughters, Sunday Rose, 17, and Faith Margaret, 15.
Also on Mar. 11, the actress opened up about her divorce in an interview with Variety, saying she’s “doing all right.”
“I’m always going to be moving toward what’s good. What I’m grateful for is my family and keeping them as is and moving forward,” Kidman said. “That’s that. Everything else I don’t discuss out of respect.”
The divorce was settled in January 2026, with the exes agreeing to split custody of their daughters. Kidman was granted primary residential custody with 306 days a year with the girls, while Urban will get time every other weekend.
“I’m staying in a place of, ‘We are a family,'” Kidman added. “That’s what we’ll continue to be. My beautiful girls, my darlings, who are suddenly women.”
Trader Joe's $5 Freezer Find Is a Savory Hit of After-School Nostalgia
Ever since I was a kid, pizza has been a constant in my life. And while I'll take a fresh New York slice any day of the week, I'm not picky, so I'm just as happy relying on a frozen pizza or cafeteria-style pie to fulfill my needs.
Since I'm pretty adventurous with my pizza cravings, I've always been game to try any of Trader Joe's frozen pizza offerings. While browsing my local last week, I finally decided to bring home a familiar face that really struck the ol' after-school nostalgia chord for me: the Bambino Uncured Pepperoni Pizza. With individually wrapped mini pizzas inside each $5 box, it has all the makings of a new freezer staple.
The question is, once heated, will it transport me back to my pizza-loving youth?
Bambino Uncured Pepperoni Pizza, $4.29 at Trader Joe'sNathan Hutsenpiller
Existing somewhere between pizza bagels and pizza cupcakes, Trader Joe's Bambino Uncured Pepperoni Pizza is the perfect grab-and-go quick meal. Each box comes with four individually wrapped pizzas, each of which can be heated in the microwave, air fryer or oven in minutes.
These mini pies are made with a classic tomato sauce base, a generous helping of mozzarella cheese, and a few uncured pepperonis, all atop a traditional crust measuring roughly four inches in diameter. And while the box offers ample instructions for cooking them perfectly, the air fryer proves to be the superior method for effortlessly recreating that nostalgic after-school (or work) meal.
Why Everyone Is Reaching for This Freezer FavoriteNathan Hutsenpiller
While doing a little research on this intriguing pizza offering, it took me no time to find multiple fan posts online raving about its flavor. One Reddit user praised the pizza for coming out of the air fryer "super crispy," while complementing its "tangy sauce" and "perfectly melted cheese."
They added, "If you're feeling nostalgic for those school cafeteria pizza, these will totally do the trick."
Others chimed in online, one saying, "If these were human, we'd be married right now," while another called them an "absolute must have in the fridge," adding that the "kiddo loves them" and they're "great for a snack."

My Honest Review of Trader Joe's Bambino Uncured Pepperoni PizzaNathan Hutsenpiller
As I mentioned earlier, my pizza standards span a pretty wide spectrum. That said, I had high hopes going into this Bambino offering, and I'm happy to report I wasn't let down. Out of curiosity, I heated two in the microwave and two in the air fryer just to see the difference. And honestly? Straight out of the microwave, it's not bad at all. In a pinch, it's a solid option that still delivers that tangy sauce, perfectly melted cheese and savory pepperoni flavor.
But it's really the air fryer that steals the show. After seven to eight minutes at 325°F, these little pies come out perfectly soft and crispy, about as close as you can get to an "elevated" frozen pizza experience. Every bite delivers a solid mix of flavors, and the crust stays doughy without getting soggy while maintaining a satisfying crisp.
It is worth noting that if you plan to rearrange the toppings before heating, the sheer amount of cheese on top of the pepperonis makes it nearly impossible. I'd suggest leaving it as is and enjoying the character.
Definitely pick up a box for yourself the next time you spot it in the freezer section. And while you're there, check out Trader Joe's Lemony Chicken Orzo Soup and the sweet and sticky Morning Buns for more inspirational grocery favorites.

The show then revealed a visual clue of a man holding an Olympic torch while wearing a gold medal.

Visual hints have also included a jukebox inside a bar, a beer tap filling a dog bowl, a moon and a casting sheet stamped “REJECTED,” suggesting early career struggles before eventually finding success.
Together, the clues paint the picture of a singer who overcame rejection before rising to international fame and performing for huge audiences around the world.

Nicole Kidman's Relatable Go-To Movie for Instant Mood Boost
When it comes to managing emotions, we all have different strategies. For some, it's that pint of ice cream waiting in the freezer when your emotions are frayed. For others, it's a long run along their favorite trail. Some of us have a playlist with our saddest songs to pull every last tear when we're feeling blue. But for Nicole Kidman and one of her daughters, it's laughter they search for "to pull us out of a funk."
"My daughter and I, we watch Bridesmaids when we're feeling down," Kidman said while appearing on the Las Culturistas podcast. "Whenever we need a lift, we watch it, we recite it, we act it out. And we do that in the kitchen. And that is our go-to saving... that's our savior film."
Her response wasn't surprising. Bridesmaids was both a critical and commercial darling after it was released in 2011. It grossed more than $289 million on a budget of $32.5 million. Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumolo were nominated for an Oscar for Best Screenplay, while Melissa McCarthy earned a Best Supporting Actress nod. The film proved that audiences were more than ready for a hilarious comedy starring an all-women ensemble.
Kidman is just one of many who have confessed that Bridesmaids is a film they turn to over and over again. Saoirse Ronan told Jimmy Fallon that she's a huge fan and has seen it hundreds of times. Meg Stalter admitted to MTV UK that "there isn't a movie that I've seen more."
Hamnet's Paul Mescal listed Bridesmaids as one of the films that's guaranteed to make him laugh, citing one scene in particular.
"I think my favorite sequence in the film is when they're both trying to give the best lady speech," he explained to Esquire UK. "And they both keep going. Kristen [Wiig] and Rose [Byrne] and they're just... It's so funny and so uncomfortable."
While there are no plans for a sequel to the beloved film, fans have found something else to look forward to. A Bridesmaids reunion, consisting of McCarthy, Wiig, Byrne, and Maya Rudolph, is expected at the Oscars on March 15.
William Shatner, 94, Undergoes Surgery After Devastating Horse Accident
William Shatner underwent surgery to repair an injury he sustained during a recent horse accident.
Shatner, 94, fell off one of his horses late last year and shattered his right shoulder, according to Page Six.
"I ride the horses that can compete in equine skills, which is fast down and ends on a sliding stop," the Star Trekalum explained during the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films’ 53rd annual Saturn Awards on Sunday, March 8. "And the horse that I owned, I came off."
He added, "And she had a habit of going too far, like six inches to the side. And I’m riding it. And I’m ready. And she goes [too fast and sent him flying]."
Shatner — who turns 95 later this month — explained that he tried to lessen the impact of the fall by rolling.
"I’m not a young stuntman anymore. I started to roll, but hit the dirt with my shoulder. So I wrecked my shoulder," he said, adding that the surgery was expected to take 10 hours.
The beloved actor was honored with the Hall of Fame award on behalf of the "Star Trek" franchise.
1974 No. 1 One-Hit Wonder Became a Timeless Party Anthem
While it's safe to say that just about every band probably hopes to have more than one chart-topping hit over the course of their career, the truth is that even one massively successful song can cement a group's cultural legacy...like Blue Swede's iconic #1 track, "Hooked on a Feeling."
Interestingly enough, while "Hooked on a Feeling" was a massive worldwide success for the Swedish band, the song was actually a cover of a 1968 song by country/pop singer B.J. Thomas (which was written by Mark James, who also penned Elvis Presley’s hit “Suspicious Minds").
The famous "ooga-chaka ooga-oogas" at the beginning of the Blue Swede version came from yet another cover version by Jonathan King, released in 1971, according to American Songwriter.
Blue Swede, fronted by Björn Skifs, also made another update to their version, changing the lyrics to avoid any substance use implications. (The original track included the line, "I got it bad for you girl but I don’t need a cure / I’ll just stay addicted if I can endure," which was updated to, "Got a bug from you girl / But I don’t need no cure / I just stay a victim / If I can for sure.")
While "Hooked on a Feeling" was, alas, Blue Swede's first and only song to hit #1 on the Billboard chart in April 1974, it stayed there for a whopping 18 weeks. Unfortunately, the group didn't stick together for too much longer, as Skifs left Blue Swede in 1975 to launch a solo career.
Their biggest hit, however, would outlast Blue Swede by decades, seeing a surge in popularity more than once in the years to come. Not only was "Hooked on a Feeling" featured in the popular TV show Ally McBeal and the 1992 Quentin Tarantino film Reservoir Dogs, it also returned to the charts after being included in the 2014 Marvel box office smash, Guardians of the Galaxy. At the time of this writing, it's been streamed 863,128,812 on Spotify.

Who Is High Voltage on ‘Masked Singer’? ‘22’ Clue Sparks Travis Kelce & Taylor Swift Guess
Another mystery contestant electrified the stage during Care Bears Night on The Masked Singer season 14.
High Voltage delivered a playful performance of Daniel Powter’s hit "Bad Day," but it was the clues surrounding the performance that really got the panel buzzing.
So who is High Voltage on The Masked Singer? Let’s break down the latest hints and the judges’ guesses.
RELATED: Meet the Cast Competing on ‘The Masked Singer’ Season 14
Who Is High Voltage on ‘The Masked Singer’?High Voltage took the stage with an upbeat rendition of "Bad Day," showing off plenty of personality and stage confidence. But the biggest clue of the night came from his “Colossal Clue,” which he said had been hiding in plain sight the entire time: "The biggest clue has been right in front of your face the whole time."
The show then revealed a visual clue of a cowboy riding a horse, which immediately sparked speculation among the panel.
Fans also noticed that the front of High Voltage’s costume prominently features “22 V,” which could hint at the number 22 or someone associated with it.
After finishing his performance, High Voltage leaned into that clue again, saying, "I love me a little country, I know how to make an entrance and I've been feelin' 22 for a long time now."
The combination of the cowboy imagery, country references and the number 22 left the panel scrambling to connect the dots.

🔍 New Clues This WeekNew hints revealed during Care Bears Night include:
- A cowboy riding a horse
- A reference to the number 22 on the costume
- A love of country music
- The idea that the “biggest clue” has been visible on the costume all along

🎤 What the Panel Is SayingThe judges threw out several very different celebrity guesses based on the clues.
Robin Thicke suggested actor and podcast host Dax Shepard, noting that the cowboy imagery could connect to Shepard’s role in the Netflix series The Ranch.
Ken Jeong went in a completely different direction, connecting the number 22 to Taylor Swift’s famous song "22" and her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce.
Rita Ora leaned into the country clue and suggested the mystery singer could be connected to the country duo Big & Rich.
🕯 Previous Clues So FarEarlier clue packages suggested High Voltage may have built his career as part of a band before eventually striking out on his own.
During a previous performance on Ozzfest Night, High Voltage referenced a story about leaving a successful group to pursue a solo path.
Clues from that episode included a yellow duffel bag, a jar labeled “JAM,” a 95¢ sign and the phrase “Bandwagon.” High Voltage also spoke about having a “band of brothers” and explained that if he wanted “higher stakes in the game,” he had to “cut the cord and go out on my own.”
Earlier hints about his upbringing also pointed to an immigrant father who loved science, a poet mother and a childhood surrounded by American pop culture, including influences like Van Halen and MTV.
Taken together, the clues paint the picture of someone who first rose to fame as part of a group before stepping into the spotlight on his own.

President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, are heading to Broadway this spring.
It was announced on Wednesday that the former president and first lady are producing the revival of Proof through their production company, Higher Ground. The Tony-winning play follows Catherine, a young woman grieving the death of her father, Robert, a brilliant but mentally ill mathematics professor. Don Cheadle and Ayo Edebiri will be making their Broadway debuts as Robert and Catherine, respectively. The revival will be produced by Mike Bosner and directed and co-produced by Thomas Kail.

Since its establishment, the company has earned three Oscar nominations and one win (for their documentary American Factory), six Emmys and three Grammy Awards. In 2025, Higher Ground started producing IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson, a podcast hosted by Michelle Obama and her brother, Craig Robinson.
"We’re thrilled to welcome Higher Ground as partners on Proof and to have their creative vision and passion behind this production," Bosner and Kail said in a statement. "Their impeccable taste in storytelling and community-building makes them ideal collaborators for this revival."
Following an off-Broadway premiere in May 2000, Proof transferred to Broadway on Oct 24, 2000, where it ran for 917 performances before closing on January 5, 2003. In 2001, it won a Pulitzer Prize for Drama and a Tony Award for Best Play. Two decades ago, it was directed by John Madden, while the cast starred Gwyneth Paltrow as Catherine, Ronald Pickup as Robert, Sara Stewart as Claire and Richard Coyle as Hal.

Who Is Pangolin on ‘The Masked Singer’? Christina Perri Clue Changes the Game

Singing Irene Cara’s classic "What a Feeling (Flashdance)," Pangolin showcased a powerful voice while dropping one of the biggest clues yet about her real identity.
So who is Pangolin on The Masked Singer? Let’s break down the clues and panel guesses so far.
RELATED: Meet the Cast Competing on ‘The Masked Singer’ Season 14
Who Is Pangolin on ‘The Masked Singer’?Pangolin brought the house down with her performance of "What a Feeling (Flashdance)," delivering soaring vocals that suggested the singer behind the mask could be a seasoned performer.
The performance came with a major reveal involving singer Christina Perri.
During the episode, Perri appeared on stage as Pangolin’s “Colossal Clue.” Jenny McCarthy Wahlberg had previously guessed Perri as the celebrity under the mask, but the moment made it clear that Pangolin is someone else entirely.
Perri addressed the mystery directly, telling the panel: "I'm not her and she's not me, but Pangolin and I do enjoy a good girls night out together and I can't wait for the next one."
After finishing her performance, Pangolin added another intriguing hint about their relationship: "Our girls nights together have truly been some of the most meaningful and fun of my whole career."
The clue strongly suggests that Pangolin is a fellow singer who has a close friendship with Christina Perri.

🎤 What the Panel Is SayingThe judges quickly began connecting the new clues to possible singers.
Ken Jeong suggested Meghan Trainor, pointing out the connection between Trainor and Christina Perri.
McCarthy Wahlberg ruled out her earlier guess of Perri and started piecing together other clues: "It's obviously not [Christina Perri]…there was a waitress clue…Broadway…Sara Bareilles…there's also the Jennifer Nettles of it all," though Robin Thicke disputed Nettles because Pangolin sounds nothing like her (Nettles has a very distinctive singing voice).
Rita Ora went in another direction, linking Pangolin’s clues to another early-2000s singer: "I think if I had to just go back to my clues from…'1000 miles,' which makes me think Vanessa Carlton."
🕯 Previous Clues So FarEarlier clues hinted suggested Pangolin’s journey to success wasn’t easy.
During Ozzfest Night, she hinted that she once struggled to get her career off the ground, revealing that she had been living and working out of a van before eventually finding the song that changed everything.
Visual clues included a kettlebell with a heart, a tip jar, knights at a Renaissance fair and a horse marked with “1000,” which immediately sparked speculation about songs like "A Thousand Miles."
Pangolin also referenced hitting major milestones in her career, including a clue labeled “Diamond,” suggesting a major hit or career achievement.
Taken together, the clues point toward a singer-songwriter who overcame early struggles before breaking through with an emotional anthem and achieving major commercial success.

'One Piece' Actress Emily Rudd Names '70s Icon Her First Celebrity Crush
Actress Emily Rudd, known for playing Nami in Netflix’s live-action One Piece, recently shared a surprising childhood confession: her very first celebrity crush was legendary rock star David Bowie.
The reveal came from Cosmopolitan UK’s well-known “Cosmo Quiz,” where Rudd answered a series of fun personal questions. When asked about her first celebrity crush, she wrote down Bowie’s name and added a very specific detail, “in Labyrinth.”
The answer quickly caught fans’ attention, especially as Rudd is currently in the spotlight promoting the newly released second season of One Piece on Netflix.

Bowie famously appeared in the 1986 fantasy film Labyrinth, where he played the mysterious Jareth, also known as the Goblin King.
Rudd’s answer highlights just how powerful Bowie’s performance was in the cult classic film. In Labyrinth, he played the ruler of a magical world filled with strange creatures, elaborate puppets and tricky mazes.
View this post on InstagramThe movie followed a teenage girl named Sarah who must solve the labyrinth to rescue her baby brother from Jareth’s castle.
Bowie didn’t just act in the film. He also wrote and performed five original songs for the soundtrack. Tracks such as “Magic Dance,” “As the World Falls Down” and “Underground” helped give the movie its unique mix of fantasy and 1980s rock style.
Despite being released decades ago, Labyrinth has remained a cult favorite among fantasy fans. Its mix of elaborate puppetry, music, and imaginative storytelling continues to attract new audiences today.
For someone like Rudd, who grew up loving movies and fantasy worlds, it is easy to see why Bowie’s Goblin King could become a memorable early crush.
Emily Rudd’s Rising Hollywood CareerRudd’s reveal comes at a busy time in her career. The actress has been promoting the second season of Netflix’s live-action One Piece, which premiered March 10. The series adapts the famous manga and anime story about pirate Monkey D. Luffy and his crew searching for the legendary treasure known as the One Piece.
Rudd plays Nami, the Straw Hat Pirates’ skilled navigator. Her character is clever, determined and often the voice of reason for the crew.
The show became a major success when its first season debuted in 2023. Unlike many live-action anime adaptations that struggled to find audiences, One Piece was praised by both longtime fans and newcomers. The series became one of Netflix’s most-watched titles that year.
Because of that success, the streaming platform renewed the show not only for a second season but also for a third.
Season 2 continues the adventure as the Straw Hat crew explores new locations and faces new enemies while searching for the Grand Line. The cast includes Iñaki Godoy as Luffy, Mackenyu as Zoro, Jacob Romero as Usopp, Taz Skylar as Sanji and Rudd as Nami.
Off-screen, Rudd has also been building an impressive career. She first gained major attention with her role in Netflix’s Fear Street horror trilogy in 2021. Since then, she has appeared in several projects, including the sci-firomantic comedyMoonshot.
She also continues voice acting work, including the English dub of the anime Delicious in Dungeon.
Looking ahead, Rudd is preparing for another major project: the survival thriller Whalefall, scheduled to hit theaters on Oct. 16. In the film, she plays Nan Gardiner, whose brother becomes trapped after being swallowed by a sperm whale.
Between her growing film career, animation work and a global streaming hit, Rudd has quickly become one of Hollywood’s rising stars. And now fans know that even rising stars once had their own childhood crushes.
